There are a lot of articles out about this. If it's true, china is about to strip mine the moon. It will promote "green" energy to other countries while doing this. If it's not true, then we will have a fake space race to strip mine the moon.
Asteroid mining would be far more valuable in the long term.
That said I'm skeptical. The Chinese lie like breathing, and the moon is hardly a treasure trove of useful chemicals or minerals, least of all anything you could dig up with a probe.
Isn't it known to be a good source of He3 (relative to earth).
And they're talking about fusion
This part at least checks out.
Sure it has helium 3. How did they dig up, contain and return helium 3 in a device the size of a dog carrier?
